Marvel Announces Titles that will Conclude the Secret Empire Mega Arc

On Friday Marvel announced the title of the issue that will bring Secret Empire to a titular end, marking the culmination of 2017’s major crossover event: Secret Empire Omega Issue 1 will hit the shelves this fall and focus on what happens after Hydra falls and the consequences that will befell the public face of the regime: Steve Rogers, also known as Captain America. While it hasn’t been revealed what state Steve’s mental capacity will be, one can surmise it will be a heavy burden either through continuing to follow Hydra’s teachings under the control of the cosmic cube and having failed his mission or being restored and realizing the full impact and devastation he has brought to the Marvel Universe as a whole.

Still, the story won’t end there. As Senior Vice President and Executive Editor Tom Brevoort explains, “It’s not over yet! While Hydra may have fallen, there’s still a nation to rebuild, friends to be buried and an emotional toll to be tallied. To say nothing of the question of what comes next for Steve Rogers—how can he possibly move forward, possibly be redeemed, after everything he’s just been through?”

Marvel definitely pulled out all the stops on this massive crossover event, since as of July, at least 34 issues across multiple titles have been involved with the event so far. Marvel has also furthered the Secret Empire Checklist for this fall by supplying title and issue numbers for all active comics that will feature storylines exploring the emotional aftermath of Steve and Hydra’s reign.

Check out the titles below and let us know what you think of the epic tale written by Nick Spencer and drawn by artist Andrea Sorrentino.
